This year has been quite a roller coaster, but we are adapting to the "new normal" :)

If that is normal, then I'll adapt and overcome.

So yeah- the human body is adaptable and being safe should be a priority 

Those unwilling to adapt will be left behind.

My late grandparents relayed to me that some of the major advancements they were privy to in their life was the microwave, television, computers - they really didnt get to be around long enough to see much of the internet revolution - Mine so far has been the internet and social media and simply having virtually any piece of information at your fingertips - I'm sure a large contingent on here remember encyclopedia salesman or possibly their grandparents or parents having bought a set which is instantly outdated - or having to use them in school....Youtube, social media, Google, smart phones, lap tops/desktops etc etc have completely changed our world and education, specifically secondary education and the way it is presented to us as consumers has NOT changed or adapted at all and probably wont for decades unfortunately due to bureaucracy. 

I plan to get that meter out and have the account un-metered.

All of us are finding ways to adapt.

Their water bill is even larger than my unmetered multifamily ones with more occupants They are paying the water bill and the number of beds is correct for who is supposed to be living there, and there was no signs of water leaking anywhere.. water meter is inside the house and the nature of the house, any leaks would be immediately apparent. 

It was never an issue for me, other than needing more 2prong to 3 prong adapters to plug things in. 

Research, refine, make the mistakes, learn from the mistakes, adapt, overcome, persevere!
